The sun is setting on Voice of America's shortwave radio service,
heard worldwide in dozens of languages for 70 years.

A strategic technology plan prepared by the Broadcasting Board of
Governors (BBG), the federal agency responsible for Voice of America,
Alhurra, Radio Free Asia and other international stations, concludes
that it should end many shortwave broadcasts in favor of "more
effective" media such as internet radio.

I can't believe they use this excuse to close down so many shortwave
services. There are three primary reasons why internet streaming radio
cannot replace shortwave services:

1) Target areas for shortwave services do not have access to internet.

2) Even if they DO have internet access, it's severely restricted by
governments.

3) The average person that cares at all to listen to them in the free,
developed world usually does so just because they CAN, without having to pay
for the privilege, or just for the excitement of listening to something
coming from half a world away without wires.

and, just for fun, this additional tidbit:

You STILL can't take streaming radio with you reliably.

Even if this were true, as it is always said, "follow the money trail."
Alleged "organizations" and governmental departments are now constantly
trying to steer public thought in the direction they want it to go. The
reality is that there are
new short wave stations sprouting up all the time. However, there are
special interest groups that deeply want to convince the brain-dead to
abandon that which is already paid for to buy the newest gadgets. The simple
fact is that worldwide there are millions of short wave listeners who are
under 25, over 25 and it remains viable and useful. Painting the whole world
by what
some industrialized, capitalistic countries are doing is absurd. The world
is a big place but our arrogance often convinces us that we're the only ones
on the righteous path.

To believe anything else is just "drinking the Kool Aid" and convincing
yourself that the only alternative is to rush to Best Buy and buy the newest
thing that will enable the government to easily monitor what you're
listening to and censor that as well is what they want.

No, naysayers...short wave radio will be around for a long time. There are
too many honest governments and non-governmental entities that do not want
to give up the ability to reach people without borders, firewalls, scanning
software, search software and all the other figments of oppression that we
once were proud of Radio Free Europe (we thought) for dissolving. Mobility
and
convenience of terrestrial radio is superior over anything offered by "hot
spots",
waiting on buffering and clunky non-ergonomic devices like computers or
handheld
crap with buttons the size of most politician's brains.

As for the under-25s...what boneheads. You're always a bonehead when your
under 25 which is why they pitch to this group because kids will rush out
and
buy anything. It's not until your older than 25 that you figure out it's all
a con game by the fat titted old men who run everything that they're shaking
you down for as much money as they can.

Lastly, the Voice of America ceased being of any interest to listeners many
years ago
when it adopted its new "Board of Governors" mission.

I am in very strong agreement with what you say, you make excellent point.

There are a thousand other things, and worthless ones, which I would see
cut before ever touching SW. Aid to foreign countries is but one ...
just cutting the "welfare payments" to israel would give us a nice sum
to spend on SW ... getting out of the UN would be another way ...
countless ways, when you look, really ...

Same old song we heard with BBC.

Isn't anymore true now than it was then.

But, remember, these broadcasts are both political in origin and often
propagandist in nature.

Given the current tone, both in Washington and worldwide, that they
would be ending the most direct, and most portable, methods of
dissemination is hardly a surprise.

Hello dxAce

Radio Nederland Wereldomroep (Radio Netherlands World Service,
http://www.rnw.nl/english ) also has to deal with financial cuts.
They will "change focus".

According to the latest plans, this means they will virtually end
transmissions in Dutch, but continue transmissions to areas where
freedom of press isn't in the dictionary.

This would probably work. It will still get to the people for whom
freedom of speech and internet access are quite limited.

Well, actually, the ww2, ww3, etc. are known as server mirrors, and what
they "are" or "look like" is completely up to the admin of the
domain(s.) These sub-domains can be as innocuous as simply backup or
load balancing ... but, easily used for "hiding data in plain sight."

Hello Dave,

Maybe no one is listening whom they can sell some contract to make
money. There are also many listeners who don't tell they are listening
for several reasons.

I am therefore happy that "Radio Nederland Wereldomroep" (RN)
intentions are to continue their service in foreign languages.

Of course. Especially if I thought they were lonely. If the audience

I never enjoyed VOA, they talked slow and didn't always trll it like it was.

If you wanted ture news stories of America tune in Radio Moscow. In Nam I
listened to VoM to get the real news with BBC, RN.

good morning dave,,,
Have a Nice Day Dave...
ENJOY YOUR RADIOS DAVE ! ! !
-honestly-dave-
? Did I Claim Any DXing ?

Dave,
Just reported as a simply Shortwave Radio Program
Listener [SWL] to have heard the BBC World Service
on 9470 kHz [31m] at the 1100 UTC Hour here in
Northern California @ Twain Harte, CA -USA-

Dave -fyi-
The Most Frequently Asked Question [FAQ] about a
specific International Shortwave Radio Broadcaster is
most often related to the BCC World Service :
? Is the BCC World Service still Broadcasting {On-the-Air} ?
? Where Can I Hear the BCC World Service ?
? When Can I Hear the BCC World Service ?
? Anyone Heard the BCC World Service Recently ?

Dave,
So as a basic Shortwave Radio Program Listener
[SWL] : I simply report that :
* "YES" the BBC World Service is still Broadcasting {On-the-Air} !
* Where I Heard the BCC World Service !
* When I Heard the BCC World Service !
-and-yes-you-can-too-:-by-just-listening-to-the-radio-
.
-note-to- Why Dave -even-you-wrote-
"How many listeners does the BBC World service have?
I'd say that is your most likely source of a realish number."
